The film received excellent ratings on Rotten Tomatoes. The critics and audience ratings stand at 85% which is a good sign for the film.

Roofman’s box office collection in North America on day 1
According to Box Office Mojo‘s report, Roofman, starring Channing Tatum and Kirsten Dunst, collected $1 million from the Thursday previews. On Friday’s opening day, the biographical comedy film collected over $3.25 million across 3,362 theaters in North America. It opened at #2 in the box office rankings.
According to reports, Channing Tatum’s film is on track to earn between $8 million and $10 million on its three-day weekend at the box office in North America. It has a reported budget between $17 million and $19 million, so earning that in its debut weekend is a significant boost that will ensure a positive future in the long run.
